hawa pe chal raha hai chand rah-war ki tarah
qadam utha rahi hai raat ek sawar ki tarah

fasil-e-wadi-e-khayal se utar rahi hai shab
kisi khamosh aur udas aabshaar ki tarah

tadap raha hai barishon mein mere jism ka shajar
siyah abr mein ghire hue chinar ki tarah

inhi udasiyon ki kaenat mein kabhi to main
khizan ko jit lungi mausam-e-bahaar ki tarah

tere khayal ke safar mein tere sath main bhi hun
kahin kahin kisi ghubar-e-rah-guzar ki tarah

ubur kar saki na faslon ki gardishon ko main
buland ho gai zamin kohsar ki tarah

tere diye ki raushni ko dhundta hai sham se
mera makan kisi lute hue dayar ki tarah
